Season 9, Ep 29: It's that time again: the new Wisden Almanack time. In what has now become a tradition – three years makes a tradition, right? – we've sat down with Almanack editor Lawrence Booth to go through the pages of The Good Book and get his explanation of all that lies therein. A fascinating year in retrospect, with all of the uncertainty and improvisation that was so unlovely to live through, but will make absorbing history.
